rapid growth of communication technologies and globalization has provided many
opportunities to English language teachers and learners. It has paved ways for
multiple openings as well as created certain challenges. The ELT practitioners
face the challenge of sustaining the established practices while integrating
new methods and technologies in their classrooms. The conference will provide
an opportunity to address the issues related to mixed-ability learners, ESP,
syllabus design, assessment, teachers training and technology in the classroom.
The conference will also provide a forum to ELT professionals to share and
discuss their research findings and experiences and generate a debate on
practical and theoretical issues related to ELT in multiple contexts of
Pakistan. Thus, researchers, trainers, and ELT experts will focus on the
challenges and opportunities in ELT in Pakistan, Asia and other related
countries. It will be a unique breakthrough for the participants to continue
with their professional development while networking and cooperating with the
ELT community of the country and abroad. </span></p>
